Added a page about the ASLO2 idea
The aslo2 is a hypothetical revision of the aslo site that brings new features. This pages discusses them.
You can find the code here: https://github.com/SAMdroid-apps/aslo/
== JSON Backend ==
The data about the activities is stored in a json file. This json file is available via GitHub (currently https://github.com/SAMdroid-apps/sugar-activities). This is served with the correct content type here: http://aslo-bot-master.sugarlabs.org/data.json
== Activity Buildbots ==
The aslo2 integrates a lot with GitHub. It offers a web hook for which the activity can be automatically built and listing data extracted.
Here is a diagram of the network:
GitHub ----Hook-Request----> Bot Master <----Activity-Data------.
^ | ^------Request-For-Task---> Bots
|-----Data-Committed---------|
Here is a list of data sorces for the activity listing:
* Title, Summary - activity.info for en-US and po/LANG.po for the translations
* Screenshots - /screenshots/LANG/NAME.png
* What's New - NEWS.LANG (NEWS defaults to en-US). Use this format https://github.com/ignaciouy/chat/blob/af7bbc9b8036fb7252cf21cd6a2e6d545a42ed5d/NEWS
* Compatibility - Robots reading through your code :)
* Authors - You need to do that manually
* Bundle - Automatically compiled by the robots
== Commenting ==
Here are a few points:
* Live updating - via websockets
* Replying to comments
* 4 comment types: bug, question, idea and rating
== Design / UX ==
[[User:SAMdroid|SAMdroid]] ([[User talk:SAMdroid|talk]]) I think it looks nicer. You compare: http://imgur.com/C4oxFtS
It is a html5 site with ajax, rather than just server side pages.
